What did they make of the mistreatment of the Jews in the 1930s? Their own anti-Semitism contributed to an underwhelming response. Many thought that the Germans were justified in wanting less Jewish influence in their society and bought into mainstreamed lies about Jewish citizens' disproportionate or malevolent role. The regime was not successful in hiding their actions from either the local or tourists, but the tourists were more easily fooled. One group was taken to tour Dachau, where "the criminals paraded before them were in fact camp guards in disguise." (2618) Those who were present on Kristallnacht were horrified by the wantonness of the violence, but after that, the Jews disappeared from view, allowing visitors to think very little about them, with the exception of a delegation of American Quakers, who were given the runaround by Nazi officials.

Focused on economic recovery, Oberstdorf residents initially ignored Hitler and his new party in Munich. When in 1927, a postman tried to establish a branch of the Nazi Party in the village’s staunchly Catholic community, it was, as he later complained to propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, an uphill struggle.

Moterys, juodi atletai ir žydai, žinoma turėjo daug prastesnes sąlygas kai tuo metu baltieji arijai vyrai valgė steikus ir gyveno prabangoje. Hitleris tai pat atsisakė spausti ranką kai laimėjo ne tie. Most of the travelers Boyd describes generally fall into three categories: those who “had made up their minds as to which camp they belonged”, those who were naively or wilfully ignorant “because Germany’s cultural heritage was simply too precious to renounce for politics, however unpleasant those politics might be”, and those who were just plain confused and baffled by what they experienced and observed. I also liked that she didn't shy away from being judgmental when it was appropriate as in her comment, “The historian Sir Arthur Bryant was another notable foreigner whose benign view of the Nazis lasted longer than was decent.” An intimate portrait of German life during World War II, shining a light on ordinary people living in a picturesque Bavarian village under Nazi rule BuyPersico, Joseph (1995).

If you have an interest in Weimar and Third Reich history, enjoy histories with views from the bottom—of how real people experience it—or like travel writing, you can’t go wrong with this thoroughly compelling book. Julia Boyd weaves together stories and anecdotes with such skill and fluidity, reading her account seemingly takes no effort whatsoever. It’s like sitting down with a good storyteller. We know where this story will eventually end, but the stories she recounts seem so fresh because they are written from the points of view of the travelers in their times, not “with the clarity of post-war hindsight.” Kol kultūros žmonės puotavo ir žavėjosi kita Vokietijoso dalis beveik badavo ir antisemitizmas visi augo. Keliautojai buvo itin subtiliai įtraukiami į propogandos mašiną. Kokia Vokietija didinga ir nuostabi, kokie sveiki žmonės, kultūra ir kaip viskam trukdo žydai.

Boyd makes full use of memoirs, local newspapers, letters, and other research to tell the story of one, rural community, during a time of national change. She takes us from soldiers returning from the trenches of WWI, through the political turmoil of hyperinflation and the Weimar Republic, to the regime of the Third Reich, which promised so much but delivered devastation.It is a tale of conflicting loyalties and desires, of shattered dreams, despair and destruction – but one in which, ultimately, human resilience triumphs.
